What You’ll Need:

• PhD or advanced MS degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, with extensive relevant experience.
• Extensive knowledge and experience in digital security (hardware and software).
• Expert understanding of modern practical cryptography and relevant cryptographic standards.
• Previous experience in security engineering and design of security modules in hardware and software, including requirements management and security architecture.
• Experience with System level use case modelling and partitioning into hardware and software.

Who You Are:

• Strategic thinker with exceptional problem-solving skills.
• Effective communicator, able to bridge technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Collaborative leader with a commitment to mentoring and knowledge sharing.
• Adaptable and resilient in fast-paced, evolving environments.
• Innovative mindset, always seeking new solutions and improvements.

The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:

You will be part of the Security Architecture team within the Security IP group, which offers market-leading products and solutions for embedded security applications. This role involves close collaboration with various security development teams and active engagement with customers and standardization bodies.

Rewards and Benefits:

We offer a comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits to cater to your needs. Our total rewards include both monetary and non-monetary offerings. Your recruiter will provide more details about the salary range and benefits during the hiring process.
